Dr. Wade Pfau is a Professor of Retirement Income with The American College of Financial Services. Pfau’s low-key, academic style belies his groundbreaking research in the area of retirement income, making him a leading voice in what can be a complicated, yet critically important, issue for most Americans.
We asked him about common retirement income mistakes that can kill a portfolio, the pitfalls of raising the RMD age to 75, and what’s wrong with the 401(k), or at least what it can do better. Wade joins us right after these messages.
